Article Synopsis
- Offshore coastal marine ranching ecosystems host diverse bacterial communities, which were analyzed using 16S rRNA gene sequencing and bioinformatics methods.
- The study found that water bacterial communities are shaped primarily by deterministic processes, while gut and sediment communities are influenced by stochastic processes.
- Bacterial source-tracking indicated that gut bacteria are more similar to sediment bacteria than to those found in the water, providing insights into ecological dynamics in marine ranching.
The significance of mangroves in carbon storage is widely acknowledged. However, the potential role of carbon enhancement driven by mangroves in mitigating the risk of metal exposure remains unclear. In this study, a natural mangrove reserve located in Futian was selected to investigate the potential role of autochthonous organic carbon on metal bioavailability.

The diverse materials, sizes, and shapes of MNPs result in a range of environmental impacts. Size, a crucial characteristic of MNPs, influences their environmental behavior, affecting processes like migration, sedimentation, aggregation, and adsorption.
